A novel approach to understanding the localized impacts of sea level rise along Marin’s bay shoreline will be launched in southern Marin on May 21, 2015.

Join host Terry McGovern as this Hooked on Marin speaker event explores the county's railroading past. Marin historian Richard Torney takes a trip down memory 'track.' Then find out about the latest developments of the SMART system and what the future holds down the line.

The Hooked on Marin speaker series is a community-based partnership comprised of Marin county public service agencies and educational districts collaborating to foster social, educational, and cultural enrichment opportunities in Marin. Video coverage is provided by the Drake High School Communications Academy in a partnership between CMCM and the Intel Computer Clubhouse. CMCM trained four separate multi-camera production teams to cover each of the talks.

CMCM members Kathleen Nemetz and Jon Pearlstone were awarded an Honorable Mention at the 2017 Marin County Fair for a video they co-produced for Marin TV. "Ride Baby Ride" is about kids who "rope and lope" as they learn equestrian skills at the Novato Horsemen's Club. The 60-year-old non-profit organization serves the horse community of the greater Bay Area with a variety of worthwhile programs. Congratulations, Kathleen and Jon!

Each show I perform an original song and interview a special guest.

What is/was your occupation? How long have you been in this profession?

My profession is songwriting. I have a catalogue of songs I co-wrote with Grammy Award-winning producer Narada Michael Walden. Artists I’ve written for include Diana Ross, Al Jarreau, Ray Charles, and others.

What inspired you to produce your own TV series?

I became a member of CMCM because one of my mentors planted a seed. He said, “Soleil, go to your local public TV station and sing to people and your life will change.”

Marin TV mourns the loss of Saul Landau, one of the country's most important and influential documentary makers. Saul's work inspired generations of young filmmakers to explore documentary production in the pursuit of truth and justice, his spirit and guidance will be greatly missed. We have been fortunate to feature Saul's work on the channels in the past and he personally screened two of his works to the community in San Rafael in recent months. Our sincere condolences to his wife and family for their loss.

Net Neutrality has been the elephant in the regulatory room for over 10 years and our representatives have still failed to notice it. This lack of adequate protection has resulted in the court ruling today - the worst of all scenarios. Free Press has a petition/letter campaign launched - if this issue concerns you - take action here.

This could be the end of the Internet as we know it. But it doesn't have to be.

The big news: A federal appeals court on Tuesday struck down the Federal Communications Commission's Open Internet Order. This decision means that companies like AT&T, Comcast and Verizon — which brought the lawsuit — are now free to block or slow down any website, application or service they like.
